Chapter 91 Nai, the Fully Automated Wool Production Princess Aya (710 views, seeking first-time subscriptions)
Dawn City.

City Lord's Mansion, Council Hall.

Yu Jin sat upright in the city lord's seat, staring with interest at the petite figure standing not far in front of him.

"Nia?"

Yu Jin read the name aloud.

"Yes, Your Excellency the City Lord."

"Nia requests to join your Dawn City; Nia longs to be a member of Dawn City!"

Nia lowered her head, placed one hand in front of her chest, and bowed slightly.

Her chestnut-brown twin ponytails swayed gently.

A perfectly standard gesture of submission!
At the front of the hall, Neil watched this scene, his mechanical eyes flashing blue light incessantly.

Yin Yao stared intently at the suddenly appearing refugee loli, her eyes filled with scrutiny.

Do not know why.

She always felt...

Nia seems to be after Ember.

Just like ten days ago, when I was reborn.

"hiss--"

"A fifth-tier evolved being actively seeking refuge?"

"Is this Lao Yu's strength?"

"Is this the allure of ninth-tier evolved beings?"

Corner of the hall.

Chen Gang held the handful of crystals in his arms, secretly amazed.

He, and the rest of the environmental society, even after receiving a definitive answer about the 'ninth order' from the embers.

But in reality, they had no concept of 'ninth order'.

They were even less aware that Ember was currently the only Tier 9 being on this planet A3.

"Oh……"

"Nia".

Sitting upright in the city lord's seat, Yu Jin murmured that name once again.

"Is her real name Nia?"

Yu Jin suddenly spoke.

The words fell.

Nia's petite figure stiffened slightly, but she quickly recovered.

"Yes--"

just.

She had only uttered one word.

Ember waved, interrupting her.

"You have one last chance."

"Don't say you weren't warned."

This statement came out.

The council chamber fell silent.

Edmund and the other twenty-odd refugees who were with Nia first widened their eyes, and then with a 'thump', they knelt down on both knees!

"Lord City Lord!"

"I, we..."

"We are law-abiding citizens!"

Edmund loudly protested his innocence and immediately distanced himself from Nia.

The wrath of the city lord is far beyond what a few wasteland refugees can bear!
Not to mention……

This is a powerful city lord who can easily suppress sixth and seventh-tier mutated beasts!

The atmosphere inside the hall was silent and oppressive.

Yu Jin sat high up, carefully examining this uninvited 'eleventh-tier refugee'.

The eleventh order is, of course, just a misjudgment by the system.

After the system update, everyone appears as Void Plus 3.

This Nia, no, she should be called Naya, is actually an eighth-tier evolver.

【Nyarlathotep】

Home planet: Moore

[Rank: Eighth Rank (Limit)]

[Attributes: Ice, Fire, Prophecy]

[Abilities: Ice and Fire Dual Realms Lv8, Eye of Foresight Lv8, Fate's Gaze Lv7...]

to be frank.

When Yu Jin used his 'Eye of Insight' to see through the various abilities of this twin-tailed loli, he was stunned for a moment.

Although the opponent's total abilities are not as many as mine.

Three attributes provide twenty-four abilities.

Besides.

She even possesses quite a few other attribute-less abilities.

At a glance, their total abilities number no less than thirty!

What’s even more exaggerated is…

Almost all of her abilities are at level 7 or even level 8!

If it weren't for the fact that her rank was only eighth, Ember would have thought she was more like a 'max-level character' than himself.

only……

An eighth-order rank is ultimately just an eighth-order rank.

Compared to the ninth rank, it's worlds apart!

Previously on Earth.

Yu Jin broke through to the eighth rank without much effort, simply by consuming crystals along the way.

But from the eighth to the ninth rank?
The embers purified a full 100,000 tons of nuclear waste, and then continuously absorbed eighth-order crystals underground for almost 24 hours!
That's it……

He barely broke through to the ninth rank in the last five minutes before he transmigrated.

and so……

Even if this little girl is exceptionally capable, Ember is confident he can suppress her with a single hand.

of course.

What reassured Ember even more was the assessment given by the 'Eye of Insight'.

[Comment: A hundred years ago, she devoted all her efforts to glimpsing a corner of her future destiny. Guided by fate, she has waited bitterly on the wasteland planet A3 until now, just to board that man's ship and gain the recognition of a higher-dimensional civilization in the future 'galactic wasteland,' giving hope for the continuation of the Moore Star civilization. Five days ago, she gave up her status as the lord of Naya City and came to the A308 area to find that man...]

[Note: That man is you.]

In short—

Yin Naiya Yao.

the difference is.

Yin Yao was reborn and relied on powerful figures.

And this Nyarlathotep, a pure prophet.

"interesting."

Ember stared at the hundred-year-old little girl in the hall, who was pretending to be calm, wanting to see what choice she would make.

Should we continue to use a pseudonym to conceal the truth, or be completely honest with each other?

This determined her fate.

"how so……"

Naya kept her head down, not letting Ember see the changes in her expression.

She was certain, absolutely certain—

Under the cover of his prophetic ability 'Fate Void lv8', no one on this planet can spy on his information!

Even a ninth-tier evolved being couldn't achieve that!
but……

The man warned himself that this was his 'last chance'.

"Trying to fool me?"

The thought flashed through Nyarlathotep's mind.

But she quickly rejected the idea.

In a glimpse of the future she saw...

The guy sitting in the city lord's seat is the one who hunts down star-devouring mutated beasts in the vast galaxy!
Only those at level 20 or above are qualified to be called 'Star Devourers'!
Even in the wastelands of a star system where level 10 or 10 evolved beings roam freely, any lord of an interstellar refuge fortress would turn tail and run upon seeing it!

But why!
This guy in front of me is chasing a star-devouring mutated beast all over the galaxy...

That moment, the man's eyes shone with excitement, a look that Nyarlathotep could not forget even a hundred years later, and it even became a nightmare for him.

……

The silence did not last long.

"Nyarlathotep".

Naya lowered his head even further.

The ponytails hanging down on both sides of her face swayed slightly.

If the millions of citizens of Nya City on Moor Star were here, their Dao hearts would definitely shatter on the spot.

When did they meet...?

This leader, who sits on the throne of ice and fire, has once adopted this posture!
Yu Jin raised an eyebrow in the position of city lord.

He thought the little girl would continue to be stubborn.

if that is the case……

He had to consider 'suppressing the eleventh-level refugees'.

And now?
Ember looked at the text information displayed on the system panel in front of him—

[You, with your insignificant ant-like body, overpowered 'Nyar, an eleventh-tier star-level wasteland refugee,' forcing him to admit to using an alias and deception!]

Such a magnificent feat, defying the heavens and earth, has shaken the universe!

[Wasteland Points +10000000!]

[You have obtained the following resources: Tier 10 Energy Crystal *1]

[You have obtained the resource: the legacy left behind by a certain 10th-tier powerhouse]

[Evaluation: After activation, there is a chance to obtain the resources, abilities, attributes, memories, etc. of a tenth-tier powerhouse in their lifetime, but there is also a chance to obtain nothing.]

[Note: Unlocked only after reaching Tier 10.] Tier 10 Blind Box?

Yu Jin became somewhat interested.

This thing has a chance of yielding a ninth-tier widow...

"My Lord——"

Neil bent down and walked over to the embers.

She looked at Nia, her eyes carrying a hint of murderous intent.

obviously.

In Neil's view, Naya's deliberate concealment of his name had already offended his master's authority.

“Nyar knows he was wrong and is willing to accept punishment.”

just.

Before Neil could even speak, Nyarlathotep's voice rang out in the council hall.

Ember looked up and gazed at Nyarlathotep.

Naya's clear eyes were full of sincerity.

Yu Jin knew she wasn't faking it.

She waited a full hundred years in the A3 galaxy for this powerful figure.

Seeing that Naya had taken the initiative to reveal her real name, Yu Jin did not continue to expose her true rank, identity, and abilities.

after all……

Some things, once exposed, lose their appeal.

But keeping them makes them even more interesting.

Reaching the maximum level gave Ember the confidence to have fun.

Yu Jin put aside his thoughts, slowly stood up, and looked serious.

"Deserved punishment!"

Yu Jin murmured.

"Nyarlathotep is willing to accept any punishment!"

Naya buried her head deep in her hands.

"I'll punish you—"

"These past two days, they've been by my side, responsible for massaging and rubbing my legs!"

"Whether you can become a member of Dawn City depends on your performance in the next two days!"

The voice just fell.

Swah——

On the system panel, lines of text information pop up.

[You, a mere ant, dared to oppress 'Nyar, an eleventh-tier star system-level wasteland refugee'!]

Such a magnificent feat, defying the heavens, resounds throughout the galaxy!

[Wasteland Points +10000000!]

[You have obtained the following resources: Tier 10 Energy Crystal *1]

[Resources you obtained: Fragmented Map *3]

[Specifically includes: one detailed map each of areas A306, A305, and A304!]

"Hey--"

Ember smiled.

He was right.

This Naya is truly an 'automatic wool-producing machine'.

With just a few tweaks, the system's wool will fall off in a flash!

However, Yu Jin's blatant punishment surprised everyone in the hall.

Especially Yin Yao.

At this moment, his eyes narrowed even more, like pinholes.

An invisible sense of tension spread deeper and deeper into her heart.

……

……

Meeting hall.

Yu Jin sat upright in the position of city lord.

Neil pinched the left arm, while Nyar rubbed the right arm.

Although time was short and Nyarlathotep hadn't had a chance to change into her maid outfit yet...

This clumsy technique gave Yu Jin a strange feeling.

"Let's find an opportunity to try out Nyarlathotep's Ice and Fire Technique..."

Yu Jin muttered to himself.

As the handpicked 'person in charge,' Chen Gang led a thousand evolved beings to retrieve all the more than 100,000 crystals outside the city.

Although there were as many as 300,000 mutated beasts/infected creatures, most of them were first-tier mutated beasts, which would not drop crystals upon death.

when--

Dang Cang——!
Chen Gang and his men gently placed it on the floor of the hall, piling it up into a small mountain.

The abundant energy emanating from the crystals made the air in the hall subtly thicken and become heavy.

Such a scene.

This reminded Yu Jin of descriptions in cultivation novels—

It is said to be a blessed land with abundant spiritual energy, where even a breath can elevate one's cultivation level.

In retrospect, those authors weren't just making things up.

"Reporting to the city lord—"

"After inventory, the spoils for this operation are as follows—"

"Level 1 Infection Crystals: 52015 pieces!"

"First-tier energy crystals: 8054 pieces!"

"..."

"Level 5 Infection Crystals: 148 pieces!"

"13 fifth-order energy crystals!"

"Sixth-order infection crystals: 7 pieces!"

"Sixth-order energy crystal: 1 piece!"

Chen Gang stood in front of the crystallized hill and gave a detailed report.

Yu Jin nodded.

Although the number of high-level crystals was somewhat small, overall, the harvest was still quite substantial.

Of course, the gains were huge for Dawn City.

For Ember, even if these crystals number in the hundreds of thousands, they would not be of much use.

The higher the grade, the lower the effect of low-grade crystallization.

For Yu Jin to consume a sixth or seventh-tier crystal right now is practically the same as eating candy...

“Neil”.

Yu Jin raised his hand.

A sixth-order energy crystal flew out from the hill and hovered in mid-air in front of Neil.

"My lord——!"

Neil was thrilled.

Her excitement wasn't because of the sixth-order crystal, but because the first person her master called was her name!

"Thank you for managing Dawn City while I was away."

Ember looked at Neil.

"No!"

"It is Angelina Neil's honor to rule Dawn City on behalf of my lord!"

Neil leaned down and gently touched the back of Ember's hand with his forehead.

The cold touch of the mechanical material made Yu Jin raise an eyebrow slightly.

"Senior Sister Yin".

Ember raised his hand again.

A sixth-order infected crystal fell in front of Yin Yao.

but……

Yin Yao didn't answer; instead, she looked troubled.

"Ok?"

Yu Jin frowned.

Why did you refuse attribute activation stones before, and now you refuse energy crystals too?
"My Lord——"

Neil's voice rang in Ember's ears.

"She's only at the third tier now, so she can't use the sixth-tier crystal yet."

"At most, she can only use third-tier crystals..."

"If one's physique can withstand it, perhaps one can challenge the fourth-order crystal."

"Fifth and sixth tiers are absolutely beyond her capacity to withstand."

"No evolved being can ingest a large amount of energy in a short period of time; otherwise, they will explode and die!"

"The only exception is ordinary people who awaken. They can use second-tier energy crystals at most. They can't use third-tier or fourth-tier energy crystals, even if they are pure."

talking.

Neil looked at the Tier 6 energy crystal that Ember had just rewarded him with, and added:
“Even for someone like Neil, it would take at least seven days to fully digest this sixth-order energy crystal…”

"Only after digesting this crystal can I absorb the next one; otherwise, my body cannot withstand it."

Neil finished speaking.

Ember raised an eyebrow.

Unable to bear it?

Before I transmigrated, I had consumed hundreds of Rank 8 crystals in a single day...

"Damn, I almost forgot."

Yu Jin slapped his forehead in frustration.

"I'm a cheater."
